>> it's been a very busy week. a busy friday, as well. lots to get to. we start with the newest storm threat that millions of americans face today. >> nate is expected to hit the gulf coast as a hurricane this weekend. but right now, it is cutting a deadly path in central america. that brings us al, who is over from looking at your maps. >> 20 people dead at least right now. this is a deadly storm. and it poses a real threat to the gulf coast, the central gulf coast. its current location. 60 miles east-northeast of honduras. it's moving north-northwest at 14 miles per hour. cancun in its path. we expect it to cross there late friday night, tonight, into early tomorrow morning. then, out into the gulf. it strengthens into a category 1 storm. the con

miles per hour. sunday morning, it makes landfall as a category 1 storm. we put the u.s. model on top of it. the european model has shifted it a little further west. this would be the worst-case scenario for new orleans because it brings the dirty side or the stronger side of the storm into new orleans. and that would be a big problem. right now, we have hurricane watches up. heavy rain, flash flooding. tropical storm-force winds, storm surge and rough surf. last time new orleans had a hurricane watch up was back in 2013. so, it's been a while since they've been in the crosshairs. a storm surge threat for five to eight feet above high tide in new orleans, along the louisiana coast. alabama, two to four feet. and the rainfall amounts, two to three inches, locally

ten inches. down through n pensacola. but this rockets up. and we're talking about five to ten inches of rain along that path of nate. and tuesday, we'll be looking at rain from nate here in the northeast and new england. >> thank you. now, to new developments in the las vegas shooting investigation. this morning, investigators are piecing together a clearer profile of the shooter. there are other cities he may have been targeting for attacks. miguel, good morning to you. >> reporter: craig, good morning. the mandalay bay is being processed. b investigators say some of the best leads could come from cell phones and computers, offering new leads. this morning, a look at the crime scene outside of mandalay bay, a bird's-eye view of the

you see i local and federal officials say this was not a suicide note. it doesn't say anything about the shooting. it was a bunch of numbers. they're trying to figure out what the significance of that is. >> and the sheriff said the other day, he thought the shooter had some kind of help. have we learned anymore about the working theory there? >> it remains a theory. it's a critical focus of the investigation. but they believe he bought all of the guns himself. and he bought thousands of rounds of ammunition. that's harder to track. but they've talked to some of the dealers who sold him ammunition. >> what about all of the explosives that were found in his car? do officials think he was trying to make a carbomb, as well? >> i've not heard that. they don't know what to make of the explosive material. none of it had been mixed, the stuff

just sitting in the containers, it wouldn't blow up. an investigation is coming from all of the electronic things he left behind. so far, looking at that, they don't see an indication that he was looking on the internet for bombmaking instructions, craig. >> a lot of strands to sort out for investigators. pete, thank you. there's lots more to get to, including a cryptic comment from president trump calling the gathering the, quote, calm before the storm. what storm is he talking about? nbc's andrea mitchell has more on that. good morning. >> reporter: that is the question, indeed. there's new fallout about friction between the president and his secretary of state. with officials saying the president was furious about the

president trump and the first lady, hosting a dinner for military officials and their spouses. with this provocative comment. >> i don't know. this is the calm before the storm. >> what's the storm? >> could be the calm before the storm. >> what storm, mr. president? >> we have the world's great military people in this room. i'll tell you that. >> what storm, mr. president? >> you'll find out. >> reporter: white house officials did not explain what he meant. this, as the president was furious at his top diplomat, rex tillerson, wednesday. after learning for the first time from an nbc news report wednesday morning that the secretary of state had called him a moron on july 20th, following a pentagon meeting on afghanistan. four officials say the president only

theming, according to several officials. he and tillerson talked. and tillerson came out trying to quiet the conversation. >> i have never considered leaving this post. >> reporter: tillerson never denied making the moron report. >> he did not say that. >> reporter: john kelly scrapping plans to travel with the president on send, in part to contain his boss' fury, summoning tillerson and maltttt. on thursday night, mattis and kelly were flanking the president when he delivered a warning to iran. >> we must put an end to iran's continued aggression and nuclear ambitions. they have not lived up to the spirit of their agreement. >> reporter: at that time meeting with his military

we showed you said, quote, p tremendous progress has been made with respect to isis. the media will find out about that. a comment about a coming action, that neither he or his advisers would explain. >> a lot to chew over with chuck todd, moderator of "meet the press." i hope you brought your crystal ball or tea leaves. set the scene. the president with the military and their spouses saying this is the calm before the storm. what storm? >> the storm that i think he's dealing with right now the most, is the storm having to do with rex tillerson, his secretary of state. what to do. does he let them go? the iran deal is going to be a big deal as far as the world is concerned. and there's north korea. i get the idea that there's a bunch of

but for what itin inrnlyhat whi the storm is tillerson. >> do you think it's a question at this point of when, not if, secretary tillerson decides he's had enough? or the president decides he's had enough? >> it looks like a when instead of an if. they're in a situation that's a bit untenable. what is the world seeing here? this isn't the president having a dispute with his labor secretary. this is the president having a dispute with the person that is the face of american diplomacy for the world. so, that -- that's not good for the office of the presidency, to have the secretary of state disparage him. and it's not good for the president to have his leadership questioned like this for around the world. i think they're in a situation where it's just not a good place for either one of him. i don't think he can be an

effective secretary of state reporting, the president was furious when rex tillerson called him a moron. and that's something he did not deny saying. >> when he is referring to storm, he's referring to that. you wonder if the secretary of state had denied himself saying that word on camera. as you recall, the president was midair when rex tillerson did this extraordinary news conference. he was midair, on his way to las vegas. he was watching live. as our reporting indicates, when he didn't deny that comment, it might as well have been a confirmation. and that just amped up, i think, the president's ire even more. >> the state department denied it but tillerson didn't. >> let's talk about bump-stocks. looks like congress is changing a bit. the nra

legislation that would end these things. do you get the suspicion that we might see more on guns? >> not at all. if anything, i think you will see -- i will be surprised if congress ever votes on this. i think the nra, they made it clear, this would be a regulatory decision by atf. why would they prefer that? and i think republican leaders would like this. they don't want more votes on gun control measures, while they might fail, would be tough votes for some republicans to defend in some parts of the country going into 2018. i don't see this as any sort of first step into a larger conversation on gun regulations. this is a one-off. and it's an attempt to avoid an actual congressional debate and vote. >> chuck todd, with a lot going on, as usual. todd's interview
